Re: rostock qustions
I'm almost done building this. The hardware is basically all assembled, I'm just waiting on an arduino in the mail still. I ordered the aluhotendv5 for this too but that also hasnt arrived yet....

just a curious question..... wont the PLA in the motor base soften with the motor heat in a long duration print ?

Hi, measure the distance from bed to top on all 3 rods, it should be almost the same (it's not THAT critical, when you're calibrating, the endstops set the correct values). And then measure the...

Here is a little video of the extruder pushing some 3mm filament. I might still add a flange on the bottom to make it wades/greg foot print compatible. The ultrasonic insert and the tension bolt work...

I also use an arm-to-arm distance different from the original. Attached you have my modified carriage and effector. Hope you find them useful.

Good to see you're making progress. Idea: The lower filament guide cast it as a second piece. This will allow you to pull from the mold in one axis, eliminating orthogonal core pins. To attach it, add...

Hi Early on thrust bearings were discussed, and rejected (I think) based on cost. [www.vxb.com] Do not appear to be overly expensive if you can use a bunch of them. They do not fit nicely on an...

Just finished my rostock and now am trying to get it to work. I have the hacked marlin flashed to it with the values changed. I've tryed many things, but the homing never works. I've inverted the...

I saw this video and my printer is acting similar to it. But my wiring is a whole lot neater than that one though. [www.youtube.com]

Hello JohnSL, I just stumbled on your topic. Very nice work! Even though umdpru didn't need your SW files to be converted, please consider providing them in a universal and open CAD exchange format so...

Here is an example of a firmwre used on standard rostock using Arduino Mega2560 with RAMPS1.3; based on the pictures you posted in the other thread, it is about the same as what you have (maybe except...

I tried what you said. My min endstops are functioning now but max endstops dont change and when I do a move in printrun, it says endstops triggered. I've already tryed inverting them too. Do i have...
View ArticleRe: Rostock problems
Marlin firmware for rostock does not use min endstops. You do not need to even mount them on. Only max endstops are used and typically only for homing (depends on ENDSTOPS_ONLY_FOR_HOMING). My branch...

Any comments on Duet vs Megatronics for Delta printer with 3 extruders? I am in the UK so Duet was my first choice but it looks like I would have to upgrade with an expansion board for the multiple...
View ArticleRe: Megatronics v3 vs Duet for Delta (would like 3 extruders)
I think there are several options for multiple extruders, either with or without expansion boards. The Duet is at the more expensive end of the range, although I am not sure it is good value for...

Jerome, It sucks but I would advise you to print the updated parts. The older parts won't be stiff enough at all. I did the same thing as you and printed off many many parts before realizing I had the...

Funky, I really like the hole for the end-stop screw. Adjustements for end-stops are a must in my opinion. I'm curious, though, as to why you decided to go with belts? Have you experienced any...
